Facts

1. “The fact is that it is not possible to position the lap belt in a way that would prevent crushing the fetus in a frontal crash. Clearly lap and shoulder belts alone are not appropriate for use by pregnant women.” (James Hofferberth, former Director of the Office Of Crashworthiness at NHTSA 2013)
2. 170,000 pregnant women experience a car crash every year, resulting in an estimated 3,000 pregnancy loses and an uncounted number of adverse fetal outcomes. (Klinich et al, 1998 and 2008; Pearlman 1997)
3. During pregnancy a fetus is at a minimum of 5x the risk of fatal crash injuries compared to the 9 months post birth. This study only looked at cases where both mom and fetus died. (Evans, Redelmeier, 2015)
4. Only 48.7% of prenatal visits include counseling about seat belt use.  Only 27% of women who were counseled remember the guidance. (Weiss et al, 2007; Tyroch AH et al, 1999)
